These practices have all been affected by the creation of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, which represents a major challenge to these states and their domination of the global nuclear order.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eChallenging nuclearism\u003c\/i\u003e explores how a deliberate ‘normalisation’ of nuclear weapons has been constructed, why it has prevailed in international politics for over seventy years and why it is only now being questioned seriously. The book identifies how certain practices have enabled a small group of states to hold vast arsenals of these weapons of mass destruction and how the close control over nuclear decisions by a select group has meant that the humanitarian consequences of nuclear weapons have been disregarded for decades. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe recent UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons will not bring about quick disarmament. It has been decried by the nuclear weapon states. But by rejecting nuclearism and providing a clear denunciation of nuclear weapons, it will challenge nuclear states in a way that has until now not been possible. \u003ci\u003eChallenging nuclearism\u003c\/i\u003e analyses the origins and repercussions of this pivotal moment in nuclear politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57595025883510,"sku":"9781526182593","price":29.24,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_32496418.jpg?v=1775054380","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781526182593-challenging-nuclearism","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
